+ OVERVIEW

Held on two consecutive days, June 3 and June 4, the 2016 Spring Auction Taipei “Finest and Rarest Wines” closed successfully Saturday evening. The auction collected a total of 940 lots. With rigorous selection of wine quality, Ravenel presented exquisite fine wines from the new and the old worlds as well an abundance of Japanese and Scotch whiskies. This year’s Spring Auction reached nearly US$2,400,000 in total revenue and over 70% sold by lot. Facing the market correction in Asian wine auctions today, buyers still gave Ravenel full support to maintain a stable foothold in Taiwan’s fine wine auction market. As always, Ravenel appreciates the continued support and recognition of distinguished collectors everywhere.

The auction began with Bordeaux cellars. The results showed that wines from celebrated chateaus in legendary years were particularly favored. The market of cellar vintages is also recovering stably. The oldest vintage of this auction, Château Margaux 1900, was sold for US$12,979. The rest, such as Château La Mission Haut-Brion 1955, Château Latour 1966 and Château Cheval Blanc 2005, also

Among the carefully assembled Chinese ceramics, A DING BLACK GLAZED BOWL, with an estimates of US$ 96,600 \u2013 128,900, realized US$ 100,515. This sale once again attracted market attention due to our refined quality.

Ravenel Chinese Works of Art Department will continue to work on refining and enhancing our selection of sales items. We strongly believe that we will win more support and encouragement once the market starts to come back on its feet<\/p>\n

In addition to Chinese ceramics, nine out of ten bronze censers of Qing Dynasty were successfully sold. The highly anticipated lot, A BRONZE DRAGON EARS CENSER WITH ORIGINAL SEAT, realized US$ 52,577 (estimates US$ 25,800 - 41,200) after an intense round of bids on the floor and telephone. This was indeed an exciting outcome we thankfully enjoyed!<\/p>\n

The Director of Ravenel Chinese Works of Art Department, Mr. James Chen, noted, \u201CThis season\u2019s refined selections can be considered as market trials for various categories in the realm of Chinese works of art. Through collectors\u2019 feedback, we are able to adjust sales items to be auctioned off in the future to better meet the demand. As the autumn auction coming to an end, we have already embarked on the quest of taking consignment for spring auction. Ravenel cordially invite collectors to look forward to our high quality auctions for the year to come!\u201D<\/p>\n
